Previously announced and also in development for the PC, FreeRealms is described as an "all new social networking service and massively multiplayer game in one."

A new replay editor will allow players to edit and save the last 30 seconds of gameplay. Filters, cutting, and camera angles will be supported. The separate 30-second clips can then be edited together into a longer work using the "montage editor." The complete work can then be shared on the Rockstar Social Club.
The game will also receive some changes to its multiplayer modes. Though few details have been released on this point, it was hinted that the overall player count--Grand Theft Auto 4 supported 16 player servers--may be increased for the PC edition. Confirmed are a robust set of server filters, which will enable users to find matches with specific settings much easier.
The graphics engine has also been improved, with more realistic lighting and a higher level of character and environment detail, according to Eurogamer. Resolutions up to 2560x1600 will be supported.
Grand Theft Auto 4 is set to hit PC on November 18.
A wireless keypad with a touch-sensitive pad will be released for the PlayStation 3 in November, Sony announced today.As it utilizes Bluetooth technology, the pad can be used with any other Bluetooth-compatible device, such as a smart phone or a laptop, and charges its battery via a USB connection.
With a toggle switch, the "entire surface of the keypad" can be used as a mouse-like touch pad, according to Sony.
"In this mode, you can slide your finger on this area to move the cursor on the screen and tap to enter," SCEA hardware marketing director John Koller wrote on the official PlayStation Blog. "There will be two short cut buttons on the Keypad that will enable users to jump directly to the XMB's 'Friends' icon and the 'Message Box' during gameplay."
To that end, Electronic Arts has released some additional footage of the game that made you look up the word "parkour."
